So I ditched the DRs and put on the 29.5 x 10.5 ET Drags, and there was a DEFINITE improvement.

Unfortunately I still need to license so the track was giving me grief, but I ended up making one full pass. The car 60 footed a best of 1.48 on the ET drags only leaving with minimal boost.

On this vid, the car made 5psi on the two step @ 6000 ( without pulling any timing on the two step, I have not played with this yet), then the second I dumped the clutch the seat skipped on the seat track ( It has corbeau seat tracks and I think the lever was slightly loaded from the crotch strap), so I flew backwards and pulled my foot away from the pedal ( datalog showed 15% throttle only after launch), causing it to dive rich a bit then recover. I managed to get back in it and had a harder time shifting from farther back with the harness on, but still managed a 10.11@141 with a 1.53 60 foot. The car only made 11.5 psi of boost all the way out the back on this run. The car goes a bit rich on the shifts so it still need some work, and probably some harder shifts from me.

Next time at the track I will be licensing, and then we will definitely be turning the boost up!
